NOELA HILLS (1954-1986)

Noela Hills was a colleague and friend of mine on the post-graduate printmaking course at the Central School of Art and Design, London.

She was a stylish illustrator and fine printmaker. During those days she took much delight in taking the piss out of me for being a fellow Australian. We all had a great 'larf !

She married an Aussie architect, Bob Riddell, and they went home to Brisbane. We lost touch but she did become a very successful book illustrator. They had a daughter, Nina.

But so, so sadly, I have only just discovered, Noela died in 1987 of breast cancer, aged a totally unfair age of thirty-three.

A long time ago but I still feel a great loss. One of her illustrations referenced left, in memory.
